Gold Belt Scenic Byway Jeep Tour from Cañon City

This scenic 6-hour 95 mile round trip excursion will start at an elevation of 5,300 feet and peak midway through the trip at over 11,000 feet in the historic gold mining mountain towns of Victor and Cripple Creek. The Gold Belt Tour is more than just a great way to get away from the city and experience 360 degrees of heart pounding views.

This interpretative tour takes you through old railroad tunnels on the way to the fourth largest gold mine in the world near historic Victor, CO. After a filling lunch in a unique local bakery we drop down in elevation via the old stagecoach road to see Indian petroglyphs and dinosaur quarries dating back to the 1870s. Lunch is included as part of this tour.
